I thought we were …
I thought we were the best country in the world. How can we be if we don’t care for our own?

YESH! What a …
YESH! What a Jaskass!

Regarding those two …
Regarding those two quotes, they are taken in different contexts of spending. The first, Bush spending (and tax policy), which he thought was completely idiotic and irresponsible, and Obama spending, which he thinks is for the right reasons, to save the economy, but not good enough. I’m no economic expert, but I know not all spending is the same.

We’ve spent over …
We’ve spent over $900 TRILLION on wars in Iraq and Afghanistan since 2001……….. and we can’t afford a public option health insurance plan?? Think again!!

Krugman is an idiot …
Krugman is an idiot and should return his Nobel. The NYT is no better than the National Enquirer for printing his nonsense.

“Projections show a …
“Projections show a ulative deficit of $9 trillion over the next decade. According to many that’s a terrifying number requiring drastic action–in particular, canceling efforts to boost the economy and calling off health reform. The truth is more complicated and less frightening. Deficits are actually helping the economy. In fact, deficits here and in other economies saved the world from a deeper slump. The longer-term outlook is worrying, but it’s not catastrophic.”– Krugman, Aug 28, 2009

“We have the …
“We have the biggest deficit in the history of the world, comparable to the worst ever seen in this country. The government isn’t taking in enough money to pay for programs and no strategy to deal with it. The only thing that sustains the U.S. now is that people say advanced countries always get their house in order, but there’s not a hint that’s on the political horizon, so I think we’re looking for a collapse of confidence in the not-too-distant future.”–Krugman, Nov 3, 2004

Sheer nonsense …
Sheer nonsense because this jaskass says so. Debate and middle ground is never sheer nonsense. I find his comments to be SHEER NONSENSE

The fact you think Im a bible thumper is an example of how you liberals are all bigots on the inside.

“You are another example of the far far far left wing fanatics that are ruining this country.”
If anyone is destroying his country, it is YOU bible thumping, torturing, inhuman, greedy s! BTW tell Joe Hi for me! LOL

Loud music, second …
Loud music, second hand smoke, threats to families, and water on the face are NOT TORTURE.
The waterboarding was done to three individuals.
EIT is also the way we caught Jose Padilla and saved thousands of lives.
You are another example of the far far far left wing fanatics that are ruining this country.
Please move to canada.

MeFullOfShit,
Well, if you think torture is ok, then I guess we shouldn’t have hung the Japanese for doing the same thing to our boys, right?
Try joining the human race, you hypocrite!
September 13th, 2009 at 6:16 pm
I agree torture is …
I agree torture is wrong at should never be used.
Loud music, second hand smoke, threats to families, and water on the face are NOT TORTURE.
The waterboarding was done to three individuals.
Torture is also the way we caught Jose Padilla and saved thousands of lives.
Please join us on planet earth.

MeShitForBrains,
Hay, you stupid peckerwood, torture is wrong and it is a war crime!
And if you condone the torture of another human being, for any reason, than you have no clue what it really means to be an American!
We hung the Japanese for torturing our boys, and Bush and you sadistic religious republicans put our boys in danger when Bush did those things!
Besides for brains, torture doesnt work!
September 13th, 2009 at 6:16 pm
If you try the Bush …
If you try the Bush clan for war crimes you would hve to try all of congress INCLUDING democrats.
No americans condone torture.
The problem is idiot liberals, like yourself, twist the meaning of torture to include second hand smoke, loud music, and second hand smoke.
What scary is that you have this opinion KNOWING that these tactics saved thousands of lives in the u.s.
You are a traitor and should move to canada.
LOL
Silly little liberal.

This is why people …
This is why people really never trust liberals with national security. You do not understand the difference between the US and the terrorists. President Bush DID NOT put us in the same league with them. When did you see US sawing off a live person’s head for an internet video?
Carrying a gun is a constitutional right and does not make a person a terrorist. If someone is calling for our president to be assinated that is a crime. Too bad you were not so squeamish when Bush was president.
September 13th, 2009 at 6:16 pm
I never said …
I never said anything about you or your husband. A bit sensitive are we?

RepublicanTrollJoe, …
RepublicanTrollJoe,
“Terrorists should expect to be treated harshly because they are evil.”
Evil is as evil does, Joe!
George W Bush put our country in the same league as them, and helped them to increase their numbers by showing them that we torture!
How about those gun toting terrorists at the town hall meetings, should those homegrown terrorists be locked up and tortured?
How about that Preacher that is calling for Obama to be assinated, should we torture him also?
September 13th, 2009 at 6:16 pm
RepublicanTrollJoe, …
RepublicanTrollJoe,
Load of $hit Joe! LOL
Do you think my husband and I didn’t work for what we have?
News flash; we worked our whole lives for what we have, and we don’t mind paying higher taxes so our fellow Americans can have health insurance! (smile)
Our taxes might go up, but it is worth it to help our fellow Americans; see we are not greedy pukes like you Republicans! LOL

Who wrote that …
Who wrote that nonsense? Yes, people die in prisons. Some were wounded in battle. Some killed by other prisoners. Some killed by resisting the guards. None of whom were killed during harsh interrogations. What has become has known as “waterboarding” was supervised by a physician to prevent any injury or death.
